139 Collins St. Melbourne is currently undergoing renovations. i was hoping for giant suitcases covering the façade like they usually do. though Keith still makes quite an impact on this prime commercial location nonetheless.
since the Grand Hyatt which surrounds this heritage listed building is having a major overhaul, LV management decided that it also needed a little freshening-up since it last had a refurbish back in 2000. i was told they're simply doing a slight change of the floor plan to accommodate the new fine jewellery display (probably installing a bigger safe and beefing up security). sadly, they won't be turning the boutique into a global store with men's and women's RTW. Sydney's Castlereagh St store still holds that sole privilege. though i also heard that the boutique will now have a special "suite" for their most valued clients to shop in private and peace.
they've been operating in this temporary space just down the street since August.

the Collins St boutique - which opened in 1989 if im not mistaken - is actually the first LV store to open in Australia. its scheduled to reopen by the end of November. sounds like another good excuse for a party!
